Officials eyeing you with contempt. Police treating you as scum. A sense of being constantly watched and judged by professionals. Living in fear of benefit sanctions. A lack of community facilities.

of a law, drafted with WWF, supposedly in aid of conservation. One of the
most massive human rights violations in the world is being planned, with
almost no voices outside India raised in opposition.â€
